Never through away small paper packs.
They don’t tae up much room and for this challenge I found the perfect papers from a pack I purchased over 15 years ago!
The card is white card stock.
On another piece of white card stock I stamped, with Memento tuxedo black ink, the flower using a very old CTMH set “Die Cut Scrapbook Stamp -2” (at least that’s what it says on the box).
On the papers shown I stamped the flower and leaves and trimmed them out.
The petals were glued the white card stock flower, then cut it out.
Next I cut out the leaves and center of the flower.
From a paper pack of corrugated kraft card stock I cut a strip for the stem (this is the mixed media element).
I glued the leaves to the card front and taped on the stem.
Next I applied glue dots just to the center back of the large flower and placed it in the card front.
I used glue to attach the flower center.
To finish I stamped the sentiment from MFT Stamps “Little Love Notes” using the same ink.
The perfect paper for this fun flower Arlene! I love the texture of the stem! Thanks so much for sharing this with us at CAS Mix Up!

ReplyDeleteI don't use my papers as much as I should but I won't ever part with them. This is wonderful, especially the corrugated stem. Thanks so much for playing along with us at the CC&S challenge blog!
ReplyDeleteI love this! Your bold bloom looks amazing. The colours are so pretty together and I love the touch of texture on the stem. Thank you for playing along with CAS Mix Up!
ReplyDeleteWhat an ideal set to use with patterned paper. AND what vibrant and fun paper to use. That corrugated paper makes an awesome stem. Thanks for sharing it with us at CAS Mix Up.
